    0:40 “In the flight deck, there is a legendary Captain who is the most experienced dude ever and he’s flown this plane for two decades!
    ...Beside him is this dude.”
    That was really funny for some reason.

      Right, Mark F, so what if the captain couldn't see behind his seat -- a *stewardess* could have found the breaker and saved the aircraft. It was a beautiful wheels-up landing by pilots who totally failed to think through the problem.

    • @ChristheFuzzy
      @ChristheFuzzy 5 лет назад +2

      Please don't have my sword-hand cut off for saying so (username), but I think you refer to the pilot's landing flare? Feathering, if I'm not mistaken, refers to tilting of propeller blades to a lower angle of attack to reduce drag on inoperable prop-engines. The flare is the act of pulling up just before touch-down to reduce vertical speed.
      In short, I agree. Damned impressive landing. I wonder what the bump felt like to the passengers - it looked almost imperceptible in the footage of the incident!

    • @captaincathal5772
      @captaincathal5772 5 лет назад +14

      dude... im a real pilot who had to divert before. Its a much harder decision to make than you think because if you divert and your airline considers the diversion unnecessary, you face a hefty fine and the possibility of losing your job if there was no proper reason before. I had a hydraulics problem like that 3 times (not the popped breaker or the gear up belly landing) and the first time i diverted and i'm lucky to have my job. He made the right decision to continue i think and i wouldn't have found the breaker either.

      "ladies and genleman this is your captain speaking, company decided to complement everybody with free drinks, stewardesses will start handing them out in a minute, please enjoy the rest of the flight, ta ta"

      yeah i know mid flight but i watched this crash movie as a kid, i think it was based on true story
      they opened the door and before crashing people jumped into corn fields, i think more survived jump than crash landing, if they have chutes they could jump way up, not 30k feet but maybe 3k feet
      that movie might be fiction tho, youre the expert, maybe ypull know what flight im talking about

  • @TheRunereaper

    I don't understand how it is that for 72 minutes nobody in the air or on the ground was able to identify a popped breaker. This was an aircraft already in trouble so one would have thought that both LOT and Boeing would have had their best people on hand, who had the necessary expertise to identify and rectify what was, ultimately, a resolvable problem?

    • @aaronbays4
      @aaronbays4 6 лет назад +26

      Agreed!!! And I don't put this on the pilots at all, I put it on the people they were talking to on the ground. The pilots already had a tremendous workload, I wouldn't expect the captain to leave his seat in an emergency unless directed by the ground crew to do so and check that breaker. And you never know either, that circuit could have been shorted out by the hydraulic fluid leak, thus the breaker popped.

    • @shotforshot5983
      @shotforshot5983 6 лет назад +3

      TheRunereaper. Video doesn't say it, but standard procedure is to contact Airline maintenance for troubleshooting. They contact aircraft manufacturer if needed. As these are circuit(s) with two breakers, one is (I'm guessing) for control, the other actuation. Usually the actuation circuit breaker is clearly labeled and in a manuals flow chart. But the control circuit may provide power to multiple things so it might not be as obvious to a poor tech... Someone should have pulled out a wiring diagram!!!! I was an auto tech. I've seen this countless times.

    Hmm, why continue the flight after getting a hyd c failure ? What if another failed, would that be enough to come back ? Taking into account that they were close to the departure airport and not somewhere in the boonies, i would think it better to come back. I'd think those redundant systems exist to allow you to land as fast as possible, rather than test fate, not knowing how a situation may develop further, not knowing what caused it etc.
